The most prominent historical example is Semmelweis, dude wanted doctors to start washing hands. Was ridiculed, bullied, and abused into insanity. I'll leave out mrna vaccines and gender related examples to avoid politically charged ex

Maybe you missed my point. I claim that every credible opposition to the medical establishment has been branded as science denial for decades, so much that scientists and researchers won't even bother any more for the sake of their car

Right. It's funny that my point about 'every attempt to fix the medical establishment is branded as science denial' was branded as science denial :) Nice recursive proof.

That was not my point, of course antivaxxers and science deniers exist and should not be taken seriously. I meant - the medical establishment is notorious for attacking every opposition, especially when it comes to policy, with those labels

The easy way out for you is getting into a Phd program. You should have a easy way in if your research background is good. Now you might not want a PhD for various reasons, but tech jobs are a bit more tricky to navigate nowadays. I'd

Rematerializing 'safe' computation from across a barrier or thread sync/wait works wonders. Also loads and stores and function calls, but that's a bit finicky to tune. We usually tell people to update their programs when

Remat can produce a performance boost even when everything has a register. Admittedly, this comes up more often in non-CPU backends.

by fooker 10mo ago
There is a rematerialize pass, there is no real reason to couple it with register allocation. LLVM regalloc is already somewhat subpar. What would be neat is to expose all right knobs and levers so that frontend writers can benchmark a numb

Also try LXDE and LXQT if you would like a 'lighter KDE' vibe instead of the 'lighter gnome 2' vibe of XFCE.

std::movable is a concept now! https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concepts/movable.html

Maybe std::make_movable would have been a slightly better name, but it's so much simpler to write std::move.

Yes, I agree. Now, everyone trying to fix the medical establishment is immediately called an anti vaxxer, science denier, etc. At some point it was inevitable that we get someone who can shrug these labels off because they do not have a sci

> he thinks he knows better than the entire medical establishment I think you have missed the part about why we are in this situation. People are absolutely fed up with the medical establishment. There is no way to twist this.

The amount of code was relatively low. Not the million line codebases we have today. 50-100 lines was the usual program or script.

You should be allowed to do whatever you want, by default. Preventing things only make sense if there's good reason to. Otherwise everything you do, you have to first think about whether you are allowed to, like a slave.

Hopefully we discover some sort of gravity physics/tech that makes chemical rockets obsolete! I don't see Starship being useful for civilian transport use cases, but for military operations sure! But there's not much to disti

I think we’ll eventually have some technology to make this realistic. Supersonic flights powered by jet/rocket engines might not be it for all we know. IMO we are still pretty early in the history of aviation as a technology.
